 * I am attempting to give authors the ability to upload files and link to them 
   in their posts. I’m hosted on a win2003 machine.
 * I’ve given the IUSR_* accounts read/write access to the wp-content directory.
   This allows the Upload feature to work.
 * However, when one tries to view the uploaded file, the server indicates that 
   the file cannot be found. Try [http://www.cogniza.com/wp-content/W9.2005.01.pdf](http://www.cogniza.com/wp-content/W9.2005.01.pdf)
   to see for yourself.
 * It doesn’t seem like this is a rights issue. Does anyone have a thought on this?
 * Thanks in advance.
 * Craig

 * OK, I’m a dumbass…
 * The Url needs to be [http://www.cogniza.com/blog/wp-content/W9.2005.01.pdf](http://www.cogniza.com/blog/wp-content/W9.2005.01.pdf).
 * I changed
    href=’/wp-content/W9.2005.01.pdf’ to href=’../wp-content/W9.2005.01.
   pdf’
 * Any way to get the upload script to recognize its location and modify href accordingly?
